An image processing apparatus including a display unit includes a processor and a memory storing instructions, when executed by the processor, causing the image processing apparatus to function as a detection unit that detects occurrence of a sheet jammed inside the image processing apparatus and a display control unit that displays a screen based on detection of the occurrence of the jammed sheet. The screen includes a first region for displaying work that a user carries out to remove jammed sheets from inside the image processing apparatus and a second region for displaying work that the user carries out after removing the jammed sheets from inside the image processing apparatus.
Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
1. A method for controlling an image processing apparatus, the method comprising: detecting occurrence of a sheet jam; and displaying, based on detecting the occurrence and position of the sheet jam, text concurrently with a moving image indicating at least work to remove the jammed sheet, wherein the text includes at least information that indicates work that a user is to carry out after removing the jammed sheet, and does not include information that indicates work where the user opens a cover to access the jammed sheet.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the work that the user is to carry out after removing the jammed sheet is to close the cover.
3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the text is displayed in response to detection of the cover having been opened.
4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the work to remove the jammed sheet includes work to open the cover.
5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein, in a case where the sheet jam has occurred at a first position, the moving image and the text are displayed concurrently, and wherein, in a case where the sheet jam has occurred at a second position different from the first position, the moving image is displayed but the text is not displayed.
6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein whether a sheet jam has occurred is determined in response to detection of the work indicated by the text having been carried out.
7. An image processing apparatus comprising: one or more processors; and memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the image processing apparatus to perform operations including: detecting occurrence of a sheet jam, and displaying, based on detecting the occurrence and position of the sheet jam, text concurrently with a moving image indicating at least work to remove the jammed sheet, wherein the text includes at least information that indicates work that a user is to carry out after removing the jammed sheet, and does not include information that indicates work where the user opens a cover to access the jammed sheet.
8. A method for controlling an image processing apparatus, the method comprising: detecting occurrence of a sheet jam; and displaying, based on detecting the occurrence of the sheet jam, a moving image in a first area and a text in a second area that is different from the first area, wherein the moving image shows work to be done to remove a jammed sheet, wherein the text includes a part of entire work processes for removing the jammed sheet, and wherein the text includes work that a user is required to carry out after removing the jammed sheet.
9. The method according to claim 8 , wherein the moving image is a moving image displayed with chaptering for each work process in the entire work processes.
10. The method according to claim 8 , wherein the text has already been displayed in the second area before the user carries out the work to remove the jammed sheet from the image forming apparatus.
11. An image processing apparatus comprising: one or more processors; and memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the image processing apparatus to perform operations including: detecting occurrence of a sheet jam, and displaying, based on detecting the occurrence of the sheet jam, a moving image in a first area and a text in a second area that is different from the first area, wherein the moving image shows work to be done to remove a jammed sheet, wherein the text includes a part of entire work processes for removing the jammed sheet, and wherein the text includes work that a user is required to carry out after removing the jammed sheet.
12. The image processing apparatus according to claim 11 , wherein the text has already been displayed in the second area before the user carries out the work to remove the jammed sheet from the image forming apparatus.
